  • Original Item. Only One Available. The national flag of the People's Republic of China, also known as the Five-star Red Flag, is a Chinese red field with five golden stars charged at the canton. The design features one large star, with four smaller stars in an arc set off towards the fly.


    The Five-star Red Flag was adopted as the national flag of China since the foundation of the People's Republic of China on 1 October 1949. The flag was designed by Zeng Liansong. The red represents the Chinese Communist Revolution. The five stars and their relationships to each other represent the unity of four social classes of Chinese people, symbolized by four smaller stars, under the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), symbolized by the large star. The flag was first hoisted by the People's Liberation Army (PLA) on a pole overlooking Beijing's Tiananmen Square on 1 October 1949, at a ceremony proclaiming the establishment of the People's Republic of China.
     
    This is a great 1950s era Chinese flag in a great large size, 24 ½ x 37 ½”, with an intact header with tie strings on both sides, but they’re missing on one side. One side shows very heavy color fading, likely from being flown or hung for so long. The other side retains its color very well.


    A great example, ready for further research and display.
